A slitless UBVR spectrograph has been built for use on small telescopes. Test observations on the Zeiss-600 telescope at the Terskol peak demonstrated that the spectrograph is an efficient instrument for studying high-speed processes in variable stars with a high temporal resolution. The spectrograph resolving power R ≈ 100 in the vicinity of λ = 480 nm and the error in the determination of the wavelength is approximately 3 nm. The spectrograph provides a moderate signal-to-noise ratio for stars up to 16 m . It permits one to measure equivalent widths of unblended lines down to 0.1 nm. The developed special software based on the theory of quantum statistics makes it possible to detect relative variations in the spectrum of approximately 10?5–10?6 of the bolometric flux of the star. Observations with the spectrograph made it possible to detect variations of emissions in Balmer lines and Ca II H, K lines in the EV Lac flare star in the subsecond range. The spectroscopic monitoring permits one to study stellar flares with small amplitude, to carry out a comprehensive colorimetric analysis of flare plasma, and to determine temperatures and sizes of flares in the light intensity maximum. Observations of the transit of the HAT-P-1 B exoplanet demonstrate that the chromospheric activity power of the parent star does not vary during the transit. The slitless spectrograph with a low resolving capacity opens new prospects in studying active processes occurring on stars’ surfaces.  相似文献

We present the results of a high temporal resolution spectroscopic monitoring of the flare (UV Cet type) star V1054 Oph (Wolf 630AB), classified as a dM3.5e visual binary system. Intermediate resolution spectra have been taken during four nights (2–5 April 2001) using the IDS spectrograph of the 2.5 m Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) (La Palma, Canary Islands, Spain). The V1054 Oph spectra show very strong emission lines even in its quiescent state. The analysis of the temporal evolution of the observed emission lines (from Hβ to H11 and the Ca II H and K lines) reveals four strong flares and several weak flares. We have studied in detail the behaviour of the chromospheric lines during the different phases (pre-flare, impulsive and gradual decay) of these flares. The observed flares last from ~25 to 95 min. The equivalent width of the Hβ line changes by a factor up to ~2.3. Broad wings and asymmetric (red-shifted) lines are observed as well.  相似文献

SWAP images from PROBA2 taken at 174 Å in the Fe ix/x lines are compared with simultaneous slitless flash spectra obtained during the solar total eclipse of 11 July 2010. Myriad faint low-excitation emission lines together with the He i and He ii Paschen α chromospheric lines are recorded on eclipse spectra where regions of limb prominences are obtained with space-borne imagers. We analyzed a deep flash spectrum obtained by summing 80 individual spectra to evaluate the intensity modulations of the continuum. Intensity deficits are observed and measured at the prominences boundaries in both eclipse and SWAP images. The prominence cavities interpreted as a relative depression of plasma density, produced inside the corona surrounding the prominences, and some intense heating occurring in these regions, are discussed. Photometric measurements are shown at different scales and different, spectrally narrow, intervals for both the prominences and the coronal background.  相似文献

We investigate the regime of chromospheric oscillations at the bases of coronal holes and compare them with the oscillations in the quiet chromosphere outside coronal holes using time series of spectrograms taken at different times in eight quiet regions on the Sun. As the oscillation parameter being studied, we have chosen the central intensity of the chromospheric Ca II K and H and 849.8-nm lines. The intensity measurements at all spatial points (along the spectrograph slit) have been subjected to a standard Fourier analysis. For the identified areas of the networks, cells, and network boundaries, we have calculated the integrated oscillation powers in several frequency bands. For all frequency bands, the powers of the intensity oscillations at the formation level of the Ca II resonance doublet line cores have been found to be enhanced at the bases of coronal holes approximately by a factor of 1.5. For the “three-minute” band, this enhancement is more pronounced in the network than in the cell, while the opposite is true for the “five-minute” band. The power in the five-minute band is higher than that in the three-minute one both at the bases of coronal holes and outside them, but this ratio in the network for a coronal hole is higher (1.40 ± 0.25 and 1.30 ± 0.10). We interpret this fact and the fact that the power of the three-minute oscillations for nonmagnetic regions changes with height differently at the base of a coronal hole and outside it as an increase in the importance of magnetoacoustic portals at the chromospheric base of the coronal hole.  相似文献

We have obtained a large amount of high-dispersion spectra of Arcturus using our coude spectrograph attached to our 1-metre telescope. From this collection, we picked out an unbroken sequence of 5 spectra of the CaII H and K lines taken in a period of 4 hours on 1984 February 14. Their analysis shows that we were possibly witnessing a chromospheric eruption on the star. The following sequence was seen: the line profile became asymmetrical — the asymmetry remained while the peak emission increased — the profile became symmetrical once again. The largest asymmetry was 20% between the red and violet components of K2, and the maximum peak emission was some 20% above normal. There were also changes in K1. At the peak emission of K2 emission core appeared in the self-absorbed centre of K3.  相似文献

We present the processing results of slitless chromospheric spectra in a D3 helium line obtained during the solar eclipse of March 29, 2006. A “Cascade-Photometrics 650” CCD matrix photodetector with a rate of 16 frames/s was used for the observations. Altitude distribution of absolute brightness of the helium chromosphere has been mapped in a latitude interval 30 N-10 S on the western limb. A correlation between absolute brightness of the helium chromosphere and a solar cycle phase has been confirmed. It has been revealed that the altitude distribution of helium emission has one maximum at an altitude of approximately 2000 km. In the lower chromosphere, helium emission is undetectable. This confirms our assumption about absence of an additional maximum at 300 km in the D3 line brightness distribution in the chromosphere during sunspot maximum periods. The results also prove that X-ray coronal radiation with λ < 6 nm is the source of helium excitation in the lower chromosphere.  相似文献

During the total solar eclipse at Akademgorodok, Siberia, Russia, on 1 August 2008, we imaged the flash spectrum with a slitless spectrograph. We have spectroscopically determined the duration of totality, the epoch of the second and third contacts and the duration of the flash spectrum. Here we compare the 2008 flash spectra with those that we similarly obtained from the total solar eclipse of 29 March 2006, at Kastellorizo, Greece. Any changes of the intensity of the coronal emission lines, in particularly those of Fe x and Fe xiv, could give us valuable information about the temperature of the corona. The results show that the ionization state of the corona, as manifested especially by the Fe xiv emission line, was much weaker during the 2008 eclipse, indicating that following the long, inactive period during the solar minimum, there was a drop in the overall temperature of the solar corona.  相似文献

Basic ideas concerning the nature of young T Tauri stars (TTS) are briefly outlined and some examples of spectral investigations of those stars are considered. The photometric and spectral variability of TTS is believed to be due to circumstellar extinction, magnetic activity, and accretion of matter from the circumstellar disk onto the stellar surface. In the 1990s, a series of high resolution spectra of several TTS were obtained using the SOFIN echelle spectrograph with the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT). In particular, the emission lines in the spectra of the star RW Aur A were shown to be rotationally modulated with a period of 2.7 days, which was interpreted in terms of the magnetospheric accretion model with an inclined magnetic rotator. The spectra of TTS obtained using the UVES spectrograph with the VLT demonstrated that the effect of veiling the photospheric spectrum, usually attributed to accretion, was largely due to chromospheric extinction. The accretion is suggested to be a complementary heating source in chromospheres of TTS.  相似文献

The CCD echelle spectra of the chromospherically active binary HR 5553 are obtained using the 2.16 m telescope with Coudé echelle spectrograph of Beijing Observatory in April 1996. The features of Ca II H & K, Hα, He I D3 and Ca II IRT2 (λ 8542 AA) & IRT3 (λ 8662 AA) are presented. The absolute fluxes of these lines which provide the useful information to study the chromospheric activity of HR 5553 are given. The fundamental parameters of the cool dwarf component of HR 5553 are determined using the analysis of the observed spectra with a resolution of R ≃ 60000 and signal-to-noise ratio S/N = 100 ∼ 300. A detailed spectroscopic analysis has yielded the following fundamental parameters: Effective temperature: Teff = 4881 K Surface gravity: log(g) = 3.65 Logarithmic iron abundance: [Fe/H] = –0.30 as well as that of other 12 metal elements (relative to the Sun) are listed in the Table II and Table III. Microturbulence: ζ = 1.20 km s-1. Magnetic field measurements of the cool dwarf component of HR 5553 have been made using the Stenflo-Lindegren statistical analysis and the profile-addition technique. The magnetic field strength and filling factor are obtained. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Multi-Channel Subtractive spectrograph and filament observations   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Mein  P. 《Solar physics》1977,54(1):45-51
A Multi-Channel Subtractive Double Pass spectrograph (MSDP) has been achieved at the Meudon solar tower. Line profiles are obtained simultaneously in a two dimensional field. Space and time resolutions are very suitable for observation of fast chromospheric phenomena.Maps have been computed for Doppler shifts and H-intensities (core and wings) in a plage including a temporary activated filament. The radial velocity is zero in the core of the filament, but it increases toward the edges with opposite signs on the both sides. Velocity loops inclined at small angles on the axis of the filament are suggested.  相似文献

The analysis of the dynamic evolution of the chromospheric electron density during solar flares is fundamental for the testing of solar flare models. For this purpose we developed a digital imaging spectrograph for the observation of higher Balmer lines below 400 nm with a time resolution of 1 s and an algorithm for the determination of the electron density from the observed line profiles. On January 5, 1992 a M1/1N flare was observed in H, H and Caii H and the temporal evolution of the electron density was determined. The chromospheric electron density rises several times from less than 3 × 1019 to 1 × 1020 m–3 during the hard X-ray peaks.  相似文献

The Extreme-ultraviolet Variability Experiment (EVE; see Woods et al., 2009) obtains continuous EUV spectra of the Sun viewed as a star. Its primary objective is the characterization of solar spectral irradiance, but its sensitivity and stability make it extremely interesting for observations of variability on time scales down to the limit imposed by its basic 10 s sample interval. In this paper we characterize the Doppler sensitivity of the EVE data. We find that the 30.4 nm line of He ii has a random Doppler error below 0.001 nm (1 pm, better than 10 km s−1 as a redshift), with ample stability to detect the orbital motion of its satellite, the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). Solar flares also displace the spectrum, both because of Doppler shifts and because of EVE’s optical layout, which (as with a slitless spectrograph) confuses position and wavelength. As a flare develops, the centroid of the line displays variations that reflect Doppler shifts and therefore flare dynamics. For the impulsive phase of the flare SOL2010-06-12, we find the line centroid to have a redshift of 16.8 ± 5.9 km s−1 relative to that of the flare gradual phase (statistical errors only). We find also that high-temperature lines, such as Fe xxiv 19.2 nm, have well-determined Doppler components for major flares, with decreasing apparent blueshifts as expected from chromospheric evaporation flows.  相似文献

We discuss spatial variations in electron density at the base of the corona and in the temperature gradient in the chromospheric-coronal transition layer as determined from analysis of maps constructed from Mgx and OVI spectroheliograms. Both the mapping techniques and results of analyzing EUV spectra from OSO 6 observations are presented. Comparisons of these maps with photospheric magnetograms and spectroheliograms made in chromospheric EUV lines and continua indicate that the electron density and temperature gradient in the transition layer tend to be enhanced in areas where the photospheric magnetic field and chromospheric EUV emission are enhanced. Relationships among the coronal electron density, transition-layer temperature gradient, chromospheric emission, and photospheric magnetic field strength are derived.  相似文献

Spectra of a 2B flare on 3 February, 1983 were observed simultaneously at H, H, and Can H, K lines with a multichannel spectrograph in the solar tower telescope of Nanjing University. The flare occurred in an extended region of penumbra at S 17 W07 from 05 : 41 to 07 : 00 UT. By use of an iterative method to solve the equations describing hydrostatic, radiative, and statistical equilibrium for hydrogen and ionized calcium atoms, five semi-empirical models corresponding to different times of the chromospheric flare have been computed. The results show that after the beginning of the flare, the heating of the chromosphere starts and the transition layer begins to be displaced downwards. However, during the impulsive phase the flare chromospheric region has a rapid outward expansion followed by a quick downward contraction. At the same time the transition layer starts to ascend and then descend again. After the H intensity maximum, the flare chromospheric region continues to condense and attains its most dense phase more than ten minutes after the maximum. Finally, the flare chromospheric region returns slowly to the normal chromospheric situation.  相似文献

The asymmetry of Hα line profiles is an important characteristic in the spectral observations of chromospheric flares, as well as one of the important observational facts of the dynamical process in solar flares. Based on the observed data of the solar spectrograph of Purple Mountain Observatory, some typical asymmetric Hα line profiles are presented. Taking the effects of the nonthermal excitation and ionization of hydrogen atoms into consideration, the asymmetry characteristics of Hα line profiles under different atmospheric models are calculated, and a semi-empirical study on the observed line profiles is thereby made. The results indicate that the downward motion of the chromospheric condensation region can cause the red and blue asymmetries of Hα spectra. We have tried to reproduce the observed asymmetry characteristics in specific flares. It is found that, besides the energy flux of nonthermal particles, the magnitude of spectral index and the height of the velocity field affect the line profile, the flare's atmospheric background model also has some influence on the line profile.  相似文献

Sky spectra were obtained from archival science frames taken with DoLoRes at the 3.58 m Telescopio Nazionale Galileo with a wavelength range 3800–8000 Å and resolution of 2.8 and 3.6 Å/pix. Our spectra include all the important sodium and mercury light pollution lines and span a wide interval of azimuth and observing conditions, essential to disentangle environmental and seasonal effects. New sodium and mercury lines were also detected for the first time at the observatory. Light pollution from NaD5892–8 emitted by the LPS lamps increased by a factor of 1.5–2 with respect to the average values of 1998. At the same time, light pollution from Hg lines decreased by 40% and reaches the 1998 levels only when observing toward the towns. The contribution of NaD5892–8 from LPS lamps to sky background is 0.05–0.10 mag at V-band and 0.07–0.12 mag at R-band. Synthetic sky brightness measures calculated from our spectra at V, B and R bands are in good agreement with those of [Benn, C.R., Ellison, S.L., 1998. La Palma Technical Note, p. 115] if we take into account that our observations were done during 2003, 7 years after the last sunspot minimum. The effects of the application of the Canary Sky Law are directly visible in the spectra as a 50% dimming of the Hg light-polluting lines in the spectra taken after local midnight.  相似文献

The Multi-application Solar Telescope is a 50 cm off-axis Gregorian telescope that has been installed at the lake site of Udaipur Solar Observatory. For quasi-simultaneous photospheric and chromospheric observations, a narrow-band imager has been developed as one of the back-end instruments for this telescope. Narrow-band imaging is achieved using two lithium niobate Fabry–Perot etalons working in tandem as a filter. This filter can be tuned to different wavelengths by changing either voltage, tilt, or temperature of the etalons. To characterize the etalons, a Littrow spectrograph was set up in conjunction with a 15 cm Carl Zeiss Coudé solar telescope. The etalons were calibrated for the solar spectral lines Fe i 6173 Å, and Ca ii 8542 Å. In this work, we discuss the characterization of the Fabry–Perot etalons, specifically, the temperature and voltage tuning of the system for the spectral lines proposed for observations. We present the details of the calibration set-up and various tuning parameters. We also present solar images obtained using the system.  相似文献

An Aerobee 170 rocket carried five slitless extreme ultraviolet (XUV) spectroheliographs into the March 7, 1970, solar eclipse. Salt water damage left latent images on 16 exposures of the XUV camera covering the wavelength range from 1390 Å to 1945 Å. The salt water damage made the absolute calibration of the spectroheliograms uncertain. Therefore, the analysis in this paper is based on a comparison of the extent of flash spectrum crescents from emission lines formed in the chromosphere-corona transition zone with two simple but fundamentally different models describing this region. The observations can be satisfactorily described by an inhomogeneous model where cool spicules are surrounded by a transition zone which has the same temperature and density structure as the chromospheric coronal transition zone customarily used in spherically symmetric models of the quiet Sun.Also associated with the Astronomy Program, University of Maryland, College Park, Md., U.S.A.  相似文献
